Static pixel art depicts a stylized human-like head in profile view facing left. The character has short black hair rendered as solid dark pixels. Skin tone is light brown with subtle gradient shading. Eyes are large white ovals with small black pupils; eyebrows are thin black lines above each eye. Nose is rounded and tan-colored, positioned slightly off-center on the face. Mouth is a thick curved line forming a broad smile. Background is uniform light gray. Pixelation creates blocky edges throughout the image. No clothing or accessories visible.
